Impact of proton beam radiation therapy on conduction of visual information as assessed by visual evoked potentials in patients with brain or head and neck tumors: A bicentric prospective study
Key Points
Patients receiving proton beam radiation therapy show altered conduction of visual information.
Visual evoked potentials were significantly affected in patients with brain and head and neck tumors.
Prospective analysis conducted across two medical centers to assess visual information processing.
These findings highlight the need for ongoing evaluation of visual functions post-therapy.
